Someone should tell Google and almost every “Progressive” in the developed world – PC Corporate Culture Is a Plague That Government Helps Spread | The Weekly Standard
The problem is that the scientific evidence doesn’t support the liberal view. Sex differences in interests emerge within several hours after children are born, with girls showing more interest in people and boys in systems/things. One-day-old girls look longer at faces than one-day-old boys, who spend more time looking at mechanical objects.

Google executives acted as they did, at least in part, because they feared legally imposed consequences. The government created conditions that encourage private companies to restrict speech among their employees and declare some ideas to not “even have basic legitimacy.” The government should fix the problem that it created. If it can implement protections based on race and gender and religion, it can institute protections for free expression.
But why is it that anti-discrimination laws—which have been on the books for decades—are now interpreted to mean that everyone in the workplace must hold only politically correct beliefs? The new interpretation seems to be motivated by the recently popularized idea that “words are violence.” (emphasis added) According to this doctrine (widely accepted on college campuses), expressing non-PC beliefs constitutes violence. Thus, Zunger explains that because Damore created a “hostile work environment,” “a good number of the people [he] might have to work with may simply punch [him] in the face.” According to the old standards, punching someone in the face, not expressing an opinion about a scientific debate, would create a hostile work environment. According to the new standards, Damore initiated the violence by saying something politically incorrect.
